Net Insight debuted the Nimbra 340-HD switched multi-service access system for live HD broadcasts, studio production and contribution at IBC2005.

Housed in a 2RU device, the uncompressed transport solution can be deployed in any network topology supporting both the U.S. and European versions of HD-SDI.

Nimbra 340-HD allows broadcasters to distribute uncompressed HD in a wide range of content services, from live HD broadcasting of sports and stadium events to pre-taped studio production and contribution.

Nimbra 340-HD supports point to multi-point distribution of video, data and voice in a flexible, topology independent manner with guaranteed QoS. It combines fixed Gigabit Ethernet and HD-SDI ports with optional plug-in units for services, such as PDH, SDI, or ASI.

The FAA’s current rules and proposed ban on flight over people, requirement of visual line of sight and restriction on nighttime flying, effectively prohibit broadcasters from using UAS for newsgathering. ~ WMUR-TV General Manager Jeff Bartlett
